Dear Steering Committee Members

Please find attached a set of comments to the minutes of the meeting held on

suggest, therefore, that you attach this set to the existing minutes.

Dear Pierre,

We have the following comments on the minutes of the FIRST/Planck
Commonality Working Group Steering committee meeting:

WG#3. Last bullet: The Chairmen ... in the "FIRST/Planck Project reserved area"
on the SCI-SA-DMS. Clarification: It is called the "FIRST-Planck domain" in
SA-DMS.

WG#3 (RTA/QLA):

It was agreed that ... Third bullet; we do not recall that this was
specifically agreed. It is an obvious thing to do, but only after you
have decided on the requirements on the RTA/QLA. It is also not clear at
this time that you can speak about "the common FIRST/Planck RTA/QLA"; this is
something for this group to look into; there were reservations even about "a"
(not to mention "the") common RTA/QLA in the meeting. This bullet should be
removed or rephrased.

WG#6 (FINDAS/IDIS Commonality):

- Please remove the sentence "Emphasis to be put on the implementation
of 3rd party clients". For the commonality working group the agreed
additional task is to coordinate and specify the tests to be carried out
on the FINDAS Prototype; and later to evaluate the results of the various
tests carried out. Individual members of the group may wish to place emphasis
on testing different aspects of the prototype, only one of which is that
of 3rd party clients. Implementation is in any case an individual
responsibility of the ICCs and DPCs, not of the commonality working group.
Of course members may share implementation tasks if they so wish; they may
organize this sharing themselves or the commonality working group may agree
to facilitate it.

- Please change "the Committee expressed concern that SCI-SA was not in
a position..." to "the Committee expressed concern that the FIRST Science
Centre was not in a position...". G"oran Pilbratt in this case was not
(and obviously could not have been) speaking for SCI-SA (B. Taylor) but for
the FSC.

Best regards,

          Jan and G"oran
